An aid worker diary from Darfur, Sudan: real stories, random observations and occasional rants on the lives of Darfur’s two million displaced people and the somewhat bewildered humanitarian agencies who are trying to help them.
Sleepless in Sudan is just another website on just another violent conflict in Africa – but uncensored, direct and without the sugar-coating that the tightly controlled and highly politicized environment demands from the official sources.

On a slightly more amusing note, I thought others might appreciate this little tidbit I just discovered in an old situation report lying on my desk:

"Sources in West Darfur are reporting that a policeman entered a compound, jumped in naked, fired randomly, and disapeared again. The police admitted the incident, but denied the shooting."

Just in case there were still any doubts about how crazy this place really is...
